|
A zygote (from Greek zygtos "joined" or "yoked", from zygoun "to join" or "to yoke") is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes. The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information necessary to form a new individual. In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage. In single-celled organisms, the zygote can divide asexually by mitosis to produce identical offspring. * Oscar Hertwig and Richard Hertwig made some of the first discoveries on animal zygote formation. |
